$1.25 a night in 1925

i would be more concerned that someone, somewhere, has a small doll that looks like me.

like win7 esu subscription?

that was $50 first year, $100 second year, $200 third year, per pc, plus upgrade cost to pro if you had a lesser edition.

from the wiki article
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_monkey_theorem

If there were as many monkeys as there are atoms in the observable universe typing extremely fast for trillions of times the life of the universe, the probability of the monkeys replicating even a single page of Shakespeare is unfathomably small.

multiplan: “was i nothing to you?”

the potential liability exceeds the value of what they’re searching for.

i’m gonna go with china, russia, or ‘middle eastern’ (of some sort), butthurt over availability of certain user-uploaded content.

they’re still fingerprinting and tracking devices, pairing that data to facial rec and movement tracking from cameras, and all that to register transaction data.

some ‘third-party’ printer consumables have custom chips on them already.

not yet, they haven’t.

without search and their abuse of that monopoly, google wouldn’t have dominant positions or massive market shares that many of their other properties (products, services, software, etc) have.

probably not very many because it only took a single psychotic new owner to do that when he started pulling servers out of a sacramento data center a couple years back, with no engineering and no planning.

we got a second area code on top of our existing one and had to start 10-digit dialing something like 15 years ago.

to this day i have yet to encounter anyone with a phone number in that new area code. even the scammers that spoof their cid don’t use that new area code.

before the switch we could 7-digit dial for 40 miles around us, even across an area code boundary. and, tbh i’d rather have had to switch to a new area code and kept the 7 digit dialing than have to deal with the 10 digit bullshit. it just seems so out of place here in the boonies, hours away from, well, pretty much everything.

so, basically, the os isn’t tuned for the new chips yet.

the 2nd threads on smt-enabled cores are supposed to get hit last.

depends on when it hits the supreme court, for sure.

didn’t someone just say google was ‘very bad’ and should be ‘shut down’? …someone that helped stack the court to its current composition?

i’ve got a few using the mv3 ‘lite’ version of ubo here. seems to be sufficient–for now.

i like how the manufacturers who responded to the author’s queries basically said ‘tough shit, that product is out of support’

they’re trying, with that ‘privacy’ sandbox crap.

dear user.

thank you for your report.

please be assured that even in the event of a bsod, windows will still report metrics back to microsoft so long as the system drive is operational for use as temporary storage of that data until the next successful windows boot.

new OOB ad metrics reporting will also be added to intel ime and amd psp in future processors in order to further address your concern.
